Quota photo from 2 years ago:
This was Tyneside on a freeing cold Monday in November, complete with pink skies, snow flurries and a biting North-Easter coming in off the sea. More here.
The journey home to Sheffield took five and a half hours and I almost ended up stranded in Doncaster. Yeah – that bad.
My connection woes continue. No WWW. No phone.
Thank goodness for my tablet’s 3G connection, to which I’m currently tethered. (Not literally.)
I’m still feeling horribly out of touch though, so I thought I’d chuck in a quota photo while my plate is incubating in the lab.
Yes, rather overexposed, but I still love the colours and the concentration on my boy’s face.
This was taken at Bugz Family Playpark in Joostenbergvlakte last month on, as the exposure suggests, a very bright and sunny day.
I’d thoroughly recommend the place if you have kids below the age of about 8 or 9. Great fun.
You can see more photos from that day (and indeed that month) here.
It’s almost starting to become a tradition that I drop in a quota photo on a Sunday evening. And today in no exception. Propped up with coffee after three too many Milk Stouts last night, we headed out to Bugs Family Playpark in Joostenbergvlakte. A great time was had by all and photos from that will follow soon, but in the meantime, have this:
That’s Castletown harbour, a seem by Manxscenes’ Peter Killey. A slightly different view to the one I got from actually within the harbour earlier this year at the Tin Bath. The sky also appears to be a different colour.
It’s been a busy old weekend full of previously avoided household chores and beer making. Alex has been playing on Google Earth with his Google Earth book and his explorations have centred mainly around Paris, due to his continuing fascination with the Eiffel Tower. Since I have very little time, impetus or energy to write reams on any particular subject, herewith a quota photo from the day he and I spent in Paris earlier this year.
There are, as ever, more here.
